a1Editor Fireman. We think 1t no more
than Justice that we should make public
statement of the work we know DR.. Mrs.
KeCk to have done in our family. The
health of our son Frank began to break
down gradually. He Is fifteen years of
age. His kidneys began troubling him
six years ago, and kept getting worse, un-
til last winter he got so that at times he
could scarcely pass any urine, and IL would
be over half thick reddish sediment,
looking like meat He suffered greatly
with his back aching. His lungs became
affected and he coughed very hard, raising
great quantities of heavy green pus. He
rapidly grew worse until he was confined
to his bed, being very thin In flesh,
weighing only about one hundred pounds,
and having heavy night sweats. He suf-
fered very much with pains through his
lungs and his liver was affected. lie would
cough almost constantly, evenings and
mornings, and In fact great deal all the
time, raising more than quart OF green
pus in twenty. four hours. He had a spell
of pneumonia which left him In the above
condition, and his case was pronounced
quick consumption. We now decided that
as our home doctors did not help him we
had better have other assistance. Not
thinking 1t safe to wait six weeks longer
for the return of Mrs. Dr. Keck TO Webster
City, we wrote to her. After our giving to
her every symptom and sending her bot.
tie of the natter he coughed up, and bot
tie of his urine for examination, she sent
him a thorough course of medicines, and
In six weeks time he was able to 60 and
see der when she visited Webster. But
every one who saw him thought he looked
very badly, and prominent doctor living
there told us Mrs. Keck could not cure
him. That he was very bad, and the ouly
chance for him to recover was to travel and
have change of climate at once. But as
DR.. Mrs Keck advised us to stay right al
home and give her medicines, we did so
The result Is that Frank has gained ovel
twenty pounds in weight since he begaI
taking her medicines. The pains are al
gone from his lungs, and he does congf
any more or raise any green matter bis
back does not trouble him. He feels
strong and good and like going any place
The improvements In his case is are won
derful. Respectfully,
| MIR. AND Mrs. d. j. HOOK.
